<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s on the Agenda at the 2019 HRC Global Summit<\/b>
\n<\/p>\n
This week, HRC is hosting 29 global leaders for equality<\/a> from 27 countries and territories in Washington, D.C. for the fourth annual Global Innovative Advocacy Summit<\/a>. These leading global advocates for LGBTQ equality were selected from hundreds of applicants because of the creative, inspiring and impactful work they do to advance equality around the globe.<\/p>\n From April 22-25, the Global Innovators will take part in intense discussions with each other and HRC staff on trends and innovative ways to advance LGBTQ equality. They will share personal and professional experiences and ideas to help them in their efforts to engage key stakeholders and allies in improving the lives of LGBTQ people in their countries. This year\u2019s Summit will focus on campaign strategies, security and migration patterns, as well as cutting-edge practices to bolster LGBTQ advocacy in challenging places.<\/p>\n Since 2016, HRC Foundation\u2019s Global Summit has served as a powerful and inspiring way for HRC to connect LGBTQ leaders and allies to help strengthen the capacity of their movements. The 2019 Global Innovators join HRC\u2019s growing network of advocates and partners who represent more than 80 countries and territories.<\/p>\n Follow along here and on social media using #HRCGlobalSummit to learn more about what these leading advocates are doing with HRC.<\/p>\n On the first day of the summit, Global Innovators started with a visit to the Newseum to see the Rise Up exhibit on Stonewall and the LGBTQ rights movement. They also met with HRC staff to discuss how to harness the power of social media for stronger advocacy and better storytelling of LGBTQ lives.<\/p>\n Having fun and learning about social media from the experts at @HRC<\/a>! #HRCGlobalSummit<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/D5hTKG7lTx<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Vladana (@vanzemaljka) April 22, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Mi objetivo esta semana en #HRCGlobalSummit<\/a> es aprender de ellas y ellos, compartirles mis experiencias, irme con nuevas lecciones y m\u00e1s preparaci\u00f3n para el trabajo que viene en @colmena_41<\/a> y, pooor supuesto, con herramientas para compartir con activistas LGBT+ en M\u00e9xico. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd pic.twitter.com\/BNr3lN5jbY<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Enrique Torre Molina (@ETorreMolina) April 22, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n www.hrc.org\/blog\/whats-on-the-agenda-at-the-2019-hrc-global-summit?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss-feed<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What\u2019s on the Agenda at the 2019 HRC Global Summit This week, HRC is hosting 29 global leaders for equality from 27 countries and territories in Washington, D.C. for the fourth annual Global Innovative Advocacy Summit.
